HPCwire: D-Wave SC16 Update: What’s Bo Ewald Saying These Days

"Tucked in a back section of the SC16 exhibit hall, quantum computing pioneer D-Wave has been talking up its new 2000-qubit processor announced in September. Forget for a moment the criticism sometimes aimed at D-Wave. This small Canadian company has sold several machines including, for example, to Lockheed and NASA, and has worked with Google on mapping map machine learning problems to quantum computing. In July, Los Alamos National Laboratory took possession of a 1000-quibit D-Wave 2X system that LANL ordered a year ago around the time of SC15."
